Rupert,
Excellent. I've had a full disk bite me before too.
However, I was also going to ask why you are using the -g parameter for ssh?
If you just want to tunnel X applications between your two hosts then -X is
all you need (and I recommend -C for slow links --- compression). Do you
have some specific scenario that requires -g? No need to explain your
scenario if you have one, a simple yes will do.
